I need to return a table that contains these 3 columns: Cart Name | Count of Baskets in Cart | Count of Egg...
I'm doing a VB.Net subject at university and the major assignment is the creation of a WPF application. The application is management-focused (adding, modifying, deleting entries, etc). As these are all rather disparate tasks I'm thinking to create a tabbed interface for my assignment (in a similar vein to Spybot's interface: http://www...

I was under the impression Visual Studio 2008 (and probably other versions) already made an app.config file for Forms applications. I've edited the app.config on multiple occasions without creating a new app.config file. However, I just created a new application and I can't find the app.config file. I hit Show All files and it still d...

Update (in response to first answer, from Hans Passant): I guess I didn't explain my use-case well enough. This application will be designed for people to enter data in a "master" language (most likely English, but not necessarily), and then facilitate the entry of translations in another language. This is all done with a rich-text box ...

On Windows Phone 7 to get the current control one would use FocusManager.GetFocusedElement() Wherea on Winform it is just ActiveControl. Why use 2 semantics which is a nuisance for portability ? Is there any difference of behavior you can see between the two ? If yes that makes sense, otherwise that doesn't. ...

I'll add that list of XElements to a Parent later, but need some flexibility in building this and other lists of XElements before doing so. Is this possible? So I would have somethi...
